Category: Mardi Gras Portland

Catch the Krewe around town for our annual Trolley Gras! Trolley Gras is our homage to the Phunny Phorty Phellows who bring in carnival season by taking over trolley cars in New Orleans on January 6th. The tradition goes back to the beginning of Louisiana Mardi Gras in the 1800’s.

The Krewe returns downtown for a second line parade with the Brass Roots Movement concluding at Social Hour with Portland Center Stage! We’ll be there from 1-2pm today
Please join us before the afternoon matinee of “A Streetcar Named Desire”. More info: https://www.pcs.org/blog/social-hour-with-mysti-krewe-of-nimbus

Music: THREE Bands! Transcendental Marching Band, Bloco Alegria Samba Band & Skull and Bones second line band provide festive Mardi Gras music in the parade.

Following the parade multiple venues on Miss Ave. host Mardi Gras music!
Enjoy the Krewe Loose Cajun Band at Ecliptic Brewing at the post-parade party.
